I think licensing is similar to selling. You can elect to whom
you wish to sell, as long as you treat all members of the
"class" equally (discrimination laws like race
notwithstanding.) For example, you can refuse to sell to
competitors, as long as you refuse to sell to ALL competitors.
So you really just need to carefully define the class.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

You need to add a clause specifically relating to the terminatino of a license
when a license holder is taken over by <add big bad company>.
OTherwise it could be argued that inheritance of all assets and liabilities by
said company in a takeover nullifies the other rules of the license.
Just saying....
If there is one thing I have learned over the years from reading this blog is
that you can't have too many conditions in a contract. If you don't some
slimebag of a lawyer will find a way to wriggle out of them when the time comes
for the license to be judged in court.
Ever wondered why a Last Will and Testament has no punctuation? No punctuation
means that the scope for different interpretations on the clauses is limited.
